Does anyone have any info on this guy? I’ve consulted quite a few people and have not been able to find any info. Does anyone have one of these?

I'd always thought that was the earliest Torrington(second pic), as I heard it was a lot different from the following two, and made of tin. Plus the logo is similar. I have been doing a lot of research on obscure early vacs lately, such as the Sloane and Magic, would you mind if I saved your pic to my device?
Here are some more pics, and one of the Muenzen Specialty ads(1915-1919, this one is from 1919) mentioning the Thor. |
